Could you indicate weather if this item has an electronic, battery or manual pump? Just making sure.

Hi, the item which i got has manual pump, it takes some time and energy to fill it, but it never deflates.

Manual pump. Not very effective at all. We bought an inexpensive reversible electric pump and it is ideal.

The batteries provide the electrical power to operate the pump. There is no manual pump function with this device.

It is electronic, so I wouldn't put it outdoors. However, please read all of the comments here: it doesn't work!! Don't buy it!

I wish I knew. It would be helpful to have a spare battery pack that we could keep fully-charged as a handy way to increase to pumping capacity, especially since the original battery pack I got doesn't seem to last nearly as long as advertised (perhaps half a 55-gallon rain barrel worth, from what I've seen thus far).

I have never tried that. If it is not salt water, I would guess there would be no problem. AA batteries are sealed, so water might get into the pump motor, but most of those are designed to run wet. Please understand, this is only my guess...I have no firm technical knowledge about it.

I installed my pump with a three way switch.....on, off, automatic. That way I can leave it on auto when I leave the boat at the slip or when sailing, but can switch to manual when I want to check that the bilge is thoroughly cleared out.

Yes but it has temp control to turn on & off at 40 or higher if you wish. I have left it unattended in my pump house all winter.

There should be a dial on the pump itself. If not, put a kink in the return hose.

It is battery operated. Does not look like it's outdoor rated. Personally, I would not put this outside. Its not that sturdy.

These work with a battery operated pump. I don't know is there is a manual pump for this brand of bags.

If you want to use the pump you have to carry some kind of 12 volt battery I use a lawn mower battery they are cheaper and smaller

I would not leave it outside and don't consider it weather proof....but it is a very sturdy pump. Any 120 volt powered motor is going to fail if it gets wet enough and would also be dangerous if not run off a GFCI powered outlet...

there is a weather alert test button that allows you to confirm the weather alert functions...if you don't have the owners manual you can search on google the type of midland radio you have and pull up the owners manual there.

Mine definitely came with a pump (no batteries)! One of the reasons why I bought it!

It has a weather channel. You can tune into it, and put the radio on stand by. Once a warning or sever alert is played back, the radio will turn on and play back the message. The battery gets empty very quickly like this, so make sure you have an alternative source of energy (like put it next to the window where the solar panel can provide power, or plug in the ac adaptor).

Yes. As long as the AC power is on, your system will run off of its battery power and the battery will recharge during the time the pump is not running.

Press down on it. It's a pump. If your's doesn't work, it's probably broken.
